Recently, the urban network movie "The Courageous Struggle without Fear", directed by Yang Jianwu and starring Qian Xiaohao, Hu Ran, Zhang Liyan, etc., was launched in Xiangshan Film and Television City, and the film used the "drama within a play" method to pay tribute to the classic.
"The Courageous Struggle without Fear" tells the story of Wang Zhaojie and a group of division brothers who have been crawling and fighting in the martial arts industry for many years, with full enthusiasm, silently working hard, hoping that one day like Bruce Lee, Jet Li and Jackie Chan, they will carry forward Chinese kung fu through movies and become eye-catching martial arts stars. Later, Hong Kong action movies began to decline, Yang Jianwu left TVB to develop in the mainland, at this time it was a period of vigorous development of mainland films, the martial arts director of "Generation Grandmaster" was Yuan Heping, but this film combined a lot of school kung fu, such as Wing Chun, Bagua Palm, Shape Intention Fist, etc., so this film actually has a lot of martial arts instructions, and Yang Jianwu is one of them.
It is reported that the main creator is a person engaged in many years of martial arts instruction action experience, so Yang Jianwu especially wants to make a movie to prove himself, while "speaking" for his peers, he believes that "The Courageous Struggle Without Fear" is not only an action film, but also an inspirational film. In the cast, the main creator is also very careful, first invited the old actor Qian Xiaohao as the main actor to participate in this movie. Not only that, the main creator also selected an excellent new generation of actors to star: among them, Zhang Liyan, a young actress who graduated from jiangxi art vocational college majoring in film and television performance and is now studying at the Beijing Film Academy, played an important female role in this film, according to the organizers, actress Zhang Liyan participated in the China Youth Language Arts Competition before this to participate in the sketch "Happiness Today" and won the special prize of the junior high school group art performance, which can be seen from the director's affirmation and recognition of the profession.
For the dilemma faced by kung fu films nowadays, Yang Jianwu is very touched, "We used to shoot very hard, every move was real, fist to flesh, but now young people can't bear the hardship, and the successor of the kung fu actor is facing a situation of green and yellow." Look at me, in a few years, I won't be able to fight!" Qian Xiaohao, 57, sat next to Yang Jianwu, who talked about his physical fitness and expressed a sense of helplessness about the next development of kung fu films. In Qian Xiaohao's era, there were no excessive special effects in kung fu films, and there was no green screen, and he missed the purity of kung fu films at that time, and obviously there is no going back now.
This film is to pay tribute to them, but also hope that young people understand that as long as they stick to their dreams, they can break out of the world. ”
